3-2 was the final. Afterwards, the team talked about the importance of keeping the puck out of their own net. >> Speaker: the big thing as being able to get kills and also at the right moments as well. There is a massive moment at the outburst over being able to kill not just the two minutes with the 4 minutes so that's a huge credit to the guys in the same thing just our work ethic. >> Speaker: teams here are good at defending and they can track and they play responsible and there will be nights where we can score but to win consistently we need to be able to defend. That song rang out as excited fans cheered following the overtime victory. Hands of fans we spoke with said they are very excited about this series. >> Speaker: amazing, beautiful saves that could have ended the whole game right there. If you are headed down to ice >> Erin: game two is at 6:00 tomorrow night. If you are headed down to ice district for one of the watch parties, the tasty truck food festival is also taking place.

The city of vancouver paying off a bet on thursday after the canucks loss to the oilers earlier this week. >> Peter meiszner: we got the flag up. Didn't get the flag from edmonton in the mail unfortunately, so we had to work with what we had and this was the largest flag we were able to find. If you look closely, really closely, you can see the oilers flag flapping outside city hall. >> Erin: mayors of the two cities made the bet as their teams squared off in the second round of the stanley cup playoffs. You may notice, however, the oilers flag is noticeably smaller than the bc flag next to it. >> Narrator: you are watching global news morning. A 40-year-old man has been >> Erin: it is almost 6:32 A.M. a 40-year-old man has been charged with second degree murder in the death a 15-year-old boy. It happened while the teen was out walking with his mother. But questions remain about exactly what led up to the violent assault. As sarah ryan reports we're learning more about the young victim and how he's being remembered. >> Sarah: kristine mathisen says broden radomske was like a son to her. >> Kristine mathisen: he was fun-loving. Outdoorsy, extremely active. Just oh, heart of gold. >> Sarah: her son, seth, and broden, were born just two weeks apart, and grew up like peas in a pod. Mathisen says broden would go to hockey tournaments with her family. >> Kristine mathisen: he's the best defenseman out there. This kid, he never gave up. >> Sarah: but on tuesday night, his life was tragically cut short. The 15-year-old was walking with his mom, when he was attacked. Police and paramedics tried to save him. >> Kristine mathisen: unfortunately he just didn't make it. >> Paula power: as you can imagine it's very difficult. It's the worst thing that can happen in a school division. >> Sarah: the best friends went to lorne akins junior high. Kristine says seth didn't believe her when she broke the news. >> Kristine mathisen: it's a very difficult conversation to have. This is a 15-year-old boy. This is a son. It's not meant to happen. >> Sarah: St albert public is offering counselling to students and staff. >> Kristine mathisen: everybody just rally around and hold their family with all their hearts. >> Sarah: a man previously known to police, 40-year-old keith james landry, was arrested shortly after the deadly attack. He has since been charged with second degree murder. Police say he and the victim knew each other. Back at the scene, a cross has been carved into a tree, and a few bouquets of flowers lie on the ground, remembering broden. >> Kristine mathisen: he's just like every other boy, in every other house, he's loving, and deserving, and he should still be here. >> Sarah: sarah ryan, global news. >> Erin: the truck driver who caused the humboldt broncos bus crash six years ago will face a deportation hearing in calgary today. Jaskirat singh sidhu was sentenced to eight years in prison after pleading guilty to causing the crash in saskatchewan. That killed 16 people and injured 13 others. His lawyer, michael greene, says there's no doubt the deportation order will be granted. Greene says he will ask that during today's virtual hearing, greene says he will ask that sidhus' permanent resident status be granted on humanitarian grounds. The ucp government has tabled amendments to a controversial

bill that would give the province but can instead order a public sweeping powers over municipalities. Under the one amendment cabinet can no longer oust municipal councillors. But can instead order a public vote to decide if a councillor should be removed. This would only happen in cases where the councillor is deemed unwilling or unable to do their job or if there is illegal or the second amendment addresses unethical behaviour. The second amendment addresses bill 20's proposal to give cabinet the power to repeal or change civic bylaws. There are now a series of requirements before cabinet can intervene, like if cabinet believes the bylaw is contrary to provincial policy. >> Ric mciver: we want municipalities to focus on doing the job that they are meant to do. When it comes to these two parts of the legislation, I am pleased that we can provide more clarity in the legislation as the municipalities, some of them at least, have asked for. >> Erin: alberta municipalities, a group representing almost 270 communities, says the proposed amendments don't go far enough. President tyler gandam says the changes fail to address key concerns about having political parties at the municipal level. And about municipalities being >> Tyler gandam: we were hoping forced to hand count election ballots. >> Tyler gandam: we were hoping to have the opportunity to meet with minister mciver to work through some of those concerns that we had and never got the opportunity. We had two very short phone calls. >> Erin: meanwhile, the opposition ndp calls bill 20 authoritarian and says the amendments don't reflect the feedback from municipalities and albertans. Debate of bill 20 has been adjourned. Minister mciver says the province still plans to get the bill passed by the end of the current session which ends next week. Commercial albers is risen cold wet weather has reduced the virus but officials are warning that it could change very quickly. Right now there is 34 wildfires burning, 20 from fire officials say conditions last season. All fires are under control or being held including the fort mcmurray fire. Fire officials say conditions are favourable now. But it's important that we all continue to practice fire safety. 77 percent of fires this season have been caused by people. >> Todd loewen: despite our the effort to remind albertans with any action could cause a wildfire over at the may long weekend, 25 abandoned campfires were detected and the calgary forest area. These were quickly extinguished but if wildfire danger >> Erin: by this time last year had been higher at could have led to catastrophic wildfire starts over the long weekend. >> Erin: by this time last year 520,000 hectares had burned in our province. Compared to the 29,000 hectares this year. That is definitely good news. But definitely something to keep considering especially if you are out and on the highways. Don't throw cigarette butts out. >> Tracie: don't throw any butts outside. That's our public service announcement for this morning. That is great to know on so many levels because so many fires are started that way. So please be careful. Also be careful of your driving on 124 street and 107 avenue. We have a three vehicle collision there. There are possible injuries and quite a bit of damage to the vehicle so there are some emergency crews on the scene but there will be more arriving. Try to avoid that area is at all possible and that is going to be their potentially for a while. Taking a look at traffic cameras we are seeing traffic volume picking up now. We are getting all of the sleepy oiler fans up and out of bed and back onto the street. Quite busy through this intersection here but no major delays through here. Traffic is getting through nicely. The morning flights we do have quite a few delays and a couple cancellations. 929 westjet from halifax's delay. 949 westjet from st. John's, the 8:00 a.m., that is let's see what does that stand for I will think of that one. Porter to montreal at 850 has been completely cancelled. And canada north that is what this cn is. We are morning flights at the international better cancelled cancelled at 930. Canadian north to ottawa and the 1020 westjet to winnipeg has been delayed.

That's a look at your traffic report enter ok tire traffic. Now it's it over to sky traffic weather and see ciara. And who is this? >> Ciara: this is sienna. These playoffs. I do not have much of a voice.
